I'm a- [D]gonna raise a fuss,

[D]About a- workin' all summer just
to try to earn a [G]dollar[A][D]
Every [G]time I call my baby, try to get a date
My boss says, "No dice son,

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't [D]no [A]cure for

Well my mom and poppa [D]told me,

If you want to use the car to go
ridin' next [G]Sunday"[A]
[D]Wel[G]l I didn't go to work,
told the boss I was sick
[D]"Now you can't use the car[A] 'cause
